(Japanese: ショーコ Shōko) is a recurring character in the Pokémon Adventures manga.

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

Shōko makes her first appearance in ABW48, where she argues with her friend Trish about her choice of battling against the legendary Pokémon found inside Mistralton Cave. Trish berates Shōko for her timid behavior, and enters the cave in a huff. Black, who overheard their conversation, asks Shōko what just happened. After introducing herself, the two hear a scream coming from inside the cave and rush in to investigate. There, they find that Trish was defeated by Terrakion and Virizion and is being held captive.

Although Black manages to rescue Trish, the third legendary Pokémon, Cobalion, appears and causes Trish to drop one of her torches and accidentally cause a fire. While the three legendary Pokémon work together to put out the flames, they also steal Shōko and Trish's Pokémon from their Trainers. After negotiating with them, Cobalion, Terrakion, and Virizion agree to give the stolen Pokémon back to their original owners.

When Team Plasma makes their attack on the Pokémon League, Shōko and several other Trainers help face the Seven Sages so that Black can make his way to battle with N. Although they aren't that strong, Shōko helps free the kidnapped Gym Leaders by having her Patrat bite through the ropes binding them in place.
